KZN130 squeak/rattle

Hey all,

I have a squeak/rattle that is coming from the back of my manual KZN130 surf. The truck has a 2" suspension lift, with raised coils and torsions wound up. This doesn't occur all the time, mainly when slowing down and when I'm off the accelerator. I don't think its my drive shaft as it was rebuilt at the start of the year. A mechanic I asked thought it was probably the trailing arm bushes, can any one give me any information on this? Or any other possible causes? Cheers

is it definitely suspension, as opposed to the rear door/window combination or the body mounts?

Could be failed rear sway bar bushes or they might be real dry with having been in water alot.
Mine used to squeak alot so i put rubber grease on them .If they are slogged out they will clunk abit.
If you have done body lift check all the bolts are tight.
Could also be a loose shock.
